Nothing unusual in .xsession-errors

The problem seems to be with  gnome-session-save --kill 
It opens the screen offering Logout, Lock Screen, Switch User, 
Hibernate, Restart, Shutdown, Cancel
then whichever option you choose it saves the session and exits without 
carrying out the "kill"
I tried running gnome-session-save --kill as root in case it's a 
permissions problem, but this makes no difference.


Phil.

Any point in me running this under strace?
